    New Characters

    I had some ideas for new characters, that I posted on reddit about 2 years back.

    I think my idea for a Knight is what we now know as the Black Prior.
    my idea was different however. I pictured an light chain mail armored knight with a TOWER SHIELD with some trample or ramming ability or even full defense. With a massive joust or lance as a weapon. Being able to have offensive and defensive stances. (ie strafing with defensive shield and weapon over the shoulder or shield on the back and full offensive with the lance.

    My idea for the Vikings was the Outcast A massive brute with metal shambles of armor scavenged off the bodies of the dead. weapon of choice a huge club or war hammer. A huge tank warrior that would need to be different than the highlander. But i feel outcast is a fitting title for a viking warrior.

    For the samurais a duel wield sai warrior would have been nice but our buddy the aramusha is nice. However the sai warrior would be moderately armored with the ability to deflect and parry using the sai. My initial idea was like a powerful duel wield Shogun. with a unique fighting style.

    I had these ideas a long time ago and just wanted to share and get some feedback. I thought these were pretty interesting ideas and these characters can fit the role as well.
    For the Wu Lin I would need some more time to come up with a more fitting idea.
    Please will someone give me feedback ? I have even thought about reaching out to the company personally with some character ideas!

    This was my original post from Reddit

    Shogun , Dual wield sai assassin samurai. Flurry of attacks, deflects and counters. Rush with sais and push to the ground. Deflect or unblockable step behind and stab in the back (unblockable counter)

    Outcast Huge but nimble viking with Hybrid heavy vanguard massive war hammer duel wield , defense mode kinda ground pound like Thor planting/slamming his hammer. Heavily armored. Lore has it their weapons and armor are crafted from scraps of the battles of old.

    Lancer Huge I mean huge tower shield and Lance ready to joust. Hybrid heavy Defense mode , plants shield hides behind it and pokes out with lance changing direction. Can rush and bash with shield slamming and ragging foes across Ashfeld.

    Give feedback and lets make season 5 great and help extend the longevity of FOR HONOR
